I do believe this revelation, about the true definition of love is of extreme importance to all of the believers, as it is God's desire for us to gain a proper understanding of it at this time.
As God is love, 1John 4:08.
And Christ answered that the most important commandment centered around love for God and then neighbor.
Mar 12:28 And one of the scribes came up and heard them disputing with one another, and seeing that he answered them well, asked him, "Which commandment is the most important of all?"
v. 29 Jesus answered, "The most important is, 'Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.
v. 30 And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.'
v. 31 The second is this: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these."
It seems to me that the main reason that God created everything, is so He could love and be loved. The human race is the center of His plan and everything else in this whole physical existence is for the purpose of bringing about this love between God and people.
It is amazing the Truths that we are being given, and to have this forum to share this knowledge with other believers is a extraordinary opportunity.
This type of fellowship has never been available to believers before, communicating with so many from so far away.
Dan 12:4 But you, Daniel, shut up the words and seal the book,
until the time of the end. Many shall run to and fro, and
knowledge shall increase."
This new understanding of the meaning of love, puts the conversation that Jesus had we Peter in a whole new light.
John 21:15 When they had finished breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love(agapao) me more than these?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love(phileo) you." He said to him, "Feed my lambs."
v. 16 He said to him a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love(agapao) me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love(phileo) you." He said to him, "Tend my sheep."
v. 17 He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of John, do you love(phileo) me?" Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, "Do you love(phileo) me?" and he said to him, "Lord, you know everything; you know that I love(phileo) you." Jesus said to him, "Feed my sheep.
Love is what we must all come to know in all its forms, because love is what it is all about
mercy, peace, and love
